Today's UPDATES

Starting tomorrow, Thursday Night Football comes to FOX Network for the very first time. By now we all know the deal that it took to get the NFL Thursday package on this network, with 21 Century Fox's entertainment assets to the Walt Disney Company very soon, the 'New Fox' company is looking towards more LIVE sports and entertainment events on its Broadcast network for its in-house TV production studio will also go to Disney. Next year, WWE SmackDown LIVE will move to Fridays on FOX year-round starting October 4th, 2019, which means we'll be able to start the weekend with some good ol Thursday football and Friday night wrestling. Speaking of good ol Thursday football, prepare for a Max Sports rundown on the first ever Thursday Night game on FOX, despite the fact that the network already shows afternoon football on Thanksgiving, this is going to be really special because the matchups are ten times better than they were before. Tomorrow, it will be the Minnesota Vikings vs the Los Angeles Rams from the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum, and it appears that the Rams have been banged-up after winning three-straight games to start the season, they have five players on the injury list , three of which are questionable for tomorrow. The Vikings have five players questionable to play, although things have not been going well for them as they have started the season with 1 win, 1 tie and 1 loss. These two teams were in the playoffs way back in January and tomorrow could be a potential playoff preview for 2019, we could even see them play each again in the NFC Championship. We'll will be taking about more FOX Thursday Night games to fullest in the coming weeks, but for now I leave the viewers with a closer look at Week 4 in the NFL and the latest on the MLB and its playoff standings.

Bye Week

Carolina Panthers, Washington Redskins 

THe week is going by so far that we've have reached the end of our special edition of #TwitterTrend: "Last Week was Marvelous Week." Day Four begins like this, the Captain Marvel teaser trailer was the #1 Topic in the World last week, nobody expected it to be as good as it was last week, or maybe some people did. Marvel Studios seemed to have another excellent job trying to tell another amazing superhero story as only Marvel Studios can, the trailer featured a lot of stuff and speculation on the entire future of the MCU. But the one scene that got everyone talking is the part where Captain Marvel punches an old woman right in the face, all that woman did was smile at her and Capt. Marvel just clogged her from point-blank range. There are many ways to solve this mystery, and it maybe that the old woman is a Skrull in disguise, which is one of the alien race that will be featured in the upcoming Marvel Studios film, along with the Kree. While we all wait to see what the real explanation is, people have taken real joy in turning that scene into all kinds of gifs and memes on the internet, so to close out this special week on #KlicKNet, I'm going to a couple of those memes to get the viewers pumped for the release of Marvel Studios' Captain Marvel, in theaters March 8th, 2019.

#CaptainMarvel left me shook and even more gayer

This is a #JustSoYouKnow moment that will leave saying "OH SH*T!" Last night on WWE SmackDown LIVE, AJ Styles and Samoa Joe were set to sign the contract for the final match for the WWE Championship at WWE Super Show-Down in Melbourne, Australia. Styles was present for the Contract Signing which was taking place at the Pepsi Center in Denver, Colorado, but Samoa Joe wasn't, in fact he took a different route to Gainesville, Georgia, the hometown of AJ Styles. Joe wanted to pay Styles' wife and child a brief visit. There is nothing else I can say about it but this. watch the whole thing for yourself and see how low Samoa Joe has gotten in getting the WWE Title he so selfishly wants so bad.
